Reviews

The course was really very helpful Instructor and facility were good as well.
Only the missing the hardcopies material, sometime this help a lot than electronics copy. I understood the environmental policies very well, I used to work with Alberta Health and Environmental group as well with so many project. But for the course material it was required tools.
For the contractors if the course falling on weekend would be great.

Global Knowledge does not provide printed copies of the workbooks, and you can not print your own from the electronic file they provide. You can purchase a printed copy for an additional charge which is ridiculous after paying for the course already.

Reviewed byCharlene T.2013

Room was very cold! However the facility itself was clean with a friendly environment.
Instructor had average knowledge of Microsoft Project 2010 and often could not answer questions.
Presentation was average - instructor read handout page by page from a photocopied document that was projected onto wall.

Reviewed byJason S.2012

For the cost of this course, a hard copy of the course handout should be provided as the classes follows the handout word for word.

Reviewed byCaroline P.2012

Given the cost of the course, the hardcopy of the manual should have been provided. It would have been useful to make notes alongside the material as we went along.
